Let History Be The Judge

Now this, from the excellent Big Tissue, is a slightly more measured reaction than the one I managed to winkleman's cut-and-run trip to The Smoke last week.

Whilst the author does not share my indignation about Merton Council (well, he probably isn't politically afflicted in the way I am) he knows least-worst of a very bad job when he sees it.

As for winkleman wanting to be liked, well if that's where he wants to be then he shouldn't go around stealing 113-year-old football clubs just because he can't be bothered to set up his own, should he ? "Maybe history will show it wasn't so bad as it felt at the time", says he. Pardon ? Maybe history will show that he didn't help to rip the heart out of a famous and much-loved part of the London community which was, to many people, a way of life ? And maybe invading Iraq was a good idea.
